FOUL PLAY SUSPECTED.
Woman Under Arrest Charge ed
Win Hanging NeighbOr,s

Child.
PHILADELPHIA, March 1O.-When j.
w. Niblick returned to his home. 2911 East
street. last evening, he found his two small
children crying, and OH looking around was
Mortified to see the body of his thirteen
year-old daughter, Annie. hanging by a
rope attached to the transom of door COM
munlcating between the two rooms of the
first floor 1t was but the work of moment
Tor the horror stricken parent to draw his
knife and sever the cord, but the girl was
cold and stiff in death. and had evidently
been dead for several hours. About three
feet from the body. just inside the door
leading to the front room, was chair lying
on the side. The girl was womanly beyond
her years. and devoted her whole time to
the care of the house and her little brother
and sister. the mother being dead, and al
though deprived in a great measure of the
pleasures and recreatiOns of children of her
age, never complained, but was always of
a cheerful and happy disposition.
INVESTIGATION
leads to the suspicion that the girls death
was neither the result of accident nor sui
eide. When the father returned from his
work and found his daughter hanging in the
house, his other two children, boy aged 5
years and an infant, were crouched in a
corner of the room badly frightened. Upon
questioning the boy he told his father that
Mrs. McClelland and Flora, her daughter,
had been there and that Mrs. McClelland
had tied Annie to the door transom. Mrs.
McClelland is nelghbor of Niblicks. Little
notice was at first taken of the chld's story,
but later in the night Niblick reported the
matter to the police. Mrs. McClelland and
her daughter were placed under arrest. and
this morning were committed to await the
action OF the coroner. MIR. Niblick is a
widower and Annie, who was 13 years of
age, has been his housekeeper since the
death OF the mother. Mrs. McCielland had
separated from her husband and it is as
serted by some that she wanted to marry
Niblicll and that her chances of success
would be improved were the little house
keeper out OF the way. At the hearing to-
day the boy repeated his story and an
swered all questions in straightforward
manner. Mrs. McCleland admitted that
she visited the Niblick house yesterday
afternoon, but she denied that she knew
anything of the girls death. But little else
was CLEANED at the hearing. The whole
affair is shrouded in mystery, and but for
the positive statement of the boy no one
would have suspected foul play.
No evidence of murder was developed at
the post mOrtem examination. 1t appears
that the girl stole couple of handkerchiefs
yesterday, and that her father told her he
would whip her if she did not return them
before he returned from work.

O'Clock. On Wednesday morning. Dec %,
1885, Besse murdered Richard N. Lawton,
resident uf WestpOrt and collector of
eggs. The murder was committed for the
purpose of robbery. The sheriff made great
efforts to avoid the publicity of sensational
details. Reporters were excluded from the
execution, and only the witnesses specified
by law were admitted. The hour of the
execution was known to none but the
sheriff, and thus the usual crowd did not
gather around the jail The simple fact
that the sentence of the court was carried
